2014 Business studies work:
As part of a budgeting exercise for 9 Business Studies, and helping students develop a sense of self discipline and responsibility, I have students record their time, and then decide on how better to “spend” that time to achieve goals.

Not that statistically significant but here are the results of 11 Year 9 students after monitoring their own activities for a week.


Names removed.
